I never had any problems communication with my trainer and they were always helpful and supportive! Thank you for believing in me but most importantly helping me believe in myself!

Course participant Crystall

Completed Cert IV in Disability with WTS (previously AST) online, trainers were extremely helpful and the online portal was easy to navigate. Would highly recommend WTS.

Course Participant Emma

I wanted a change of careers and WTS (previously AST) was the best experience for me, and the best thing that I could have done. WTS went above and beyond to find a course that suited my needs, the enrolment process was a breeze and I was supported through the process. Starting a course as an adult was very nerve racking, but the trainer I had ensured every single students needs were met and catered his teaching style to suit their needs, a very inclusive organisation and a very safe environment to be in.

Course participant Angie

Thoroughly enjoyed completing my cert 3 and 4 in disability with WTS (previously AST), and am now working in a very rewarding career.
